Parsons made Speech on the lake from. n
July 1855: He was speaking in general
way about trouble with the working lfien and the
people, what he called the proletariat class, and
SPOKE ab5ut their enemies, as he termed them
the police and the Constituted authorities. He
said that they We're their enemies, and that they
would use force against them. The authorities
would use ths pelise aid the E}litias and they
would have to use force SEainst them. He adj
vised them TO purchase rifles. If they hadn t
money enough to buy rifles to buy pistols !;
and, II they couldn't buy pistols, they could
buy sufficient dysiapsite for twenty-five cents to
Building, and pointed to it," a3...si. sfs.
At meeting in CIR efs Hall, in August,
1885, Parsons said, in regard to the street-car
4stfiket Eff but one shot had been fired, and
Bonfield had happsned to be shot, the whole
city would have been deltiged In blood and the
social revolution would have besn inaugu-
rated" jr-tE t5t h -ss 4k
On February %, 1885, Parsons made speech
at Baums Pavilion, in which he said: 81 want
YOU all to units, together and throw off the yoke.
We need no President, no Congressman, no
police; no militia, no Judges. They are all
leeches, sucking the blood of the poor, who
have to support them by their labor. 1 say to
you, rise, one and all, and let us exterminate
them all. Woe to the police OF the militia
whom they send against u.s.
At meeting IN Market Square, in April, 1885,
Parsons made speech to company of work
ing linen, in which he said: sit is no use of ar
guing, We will never gain any thing by argu-
ment and words. The only way to convince
these capitalists and robbers Is to use the gun
and dynamite" .HHI
F'ielden, on March 90, 1885, said at meeting
in Grief's Hall: "A few explosions in the city
of Chicago would help the cause" In regard
to the Board of Trade, he said, at the same
time: I'VE ought to commence by blowing that
up.n ~.' ~
Fielden on March Il, 1885, made in speech
q hall, corner OF Randolph and Desplaines
streets, very near the Haymarket, and said:
aims by ohGying law and order. Damn law and
order We have obeyed law and order long
enough. The time has come for you, men, to
strangle the law or the law will strangle you"
Fielden, at meeting at Ogden's Grove, June
Z, 1885, said: 81 want all to organize. >
When I say organize. mean for you to Use
force. 1t is no use for the working people to
hope to gain any thing by means of The ordi-
nary weapons. Every one of you must learn
the use Of dynamite, for that is the power with
whichwe hope to gain our rights.
In the fall Of 1885 Fielden said at meeting
at the lake 'front.': Force should be used
no,
had means The existing order of society
should be Observation-Disclosures as no
other redress could be had peaceably. they
were justified in using force and violence"
uary II. 1886: SIT is quite true that we have
lots OF explosives and dynamite in our posses
sion, and we will not hesitate to use it when
the proper time comes. We care nothing either
for the military or the police, for these are in
the pay of the capitalists"
Fielden, on December 90 1885, in Twelfth
Street Turner Hall, said: II hope soon to sec a
few Lis as (the man who murdered the Chief
of Police of Frankfort, and was hanged for it)
in the United States, to put out of the way a
few of the tools of capital"
Engel, in February, 1885, at No. 703 Milwau-
kee avenue, said: Every man wants to join
them (him and his friends) to save up three or
four dollars to buy revolvers to shoot every po-
liceman down."
About the same time, at IS Clybourne ave-
nue., Engel said: "Those who could not arm
themselves, anu COuIu uOG Duy TcfOlVCrS, SuOulu
buy dynamite; that it was very cheap, and
easily handled. .-.
The Alarm, Parsons paper, contained this on
October IS, 1894: "One man armed with dyna-
mite bomb is equal to regiment of militia,
when it is used at the right time and place. An.
archists are Of the opinion that the bayonet and
Gatling gun will cut but sorry part IN the So
cial revolution"
April 49, 1885, two weeks before the Haymar-
ket: 1.-THE moment the abolition of govern
ment is suggested, the mind pictures the up
rising of @ hundred little despotic governments
on every hand, quarreling among themselves,
and domineering over the unorganiZed people.
This fact suggests the idea that the present
governments must be destroyed, only in
a manner that Will prevent the organi
cation or rise of any and all othel
governments, whether it be q government
of three men or three hundred millions. No
government can exist without a head, and BY
assassinating the head just as fast as govern
ment head appears, the government can be de-
stroyed, and by this same process all other gov
ernments can be kept out of existence. Z
Assassination will remove the evil from the
face of the earth. Assassination
properly applied, is wise, just humane and
brave"
November IS, 1884, the paper said: ''Dynamite
is the emancipation! In the hands of the en-
shaved, it cries aloud: Justice or humiliation?
But, best of all, the working men are not only
earning its use--they are going to use it. Is 4
Hail to the social revolution! Hail to the deliv-
erer-dynamte."
Feb. 81, 1885: LET us bear in mind the fact
that here in America as elsewhere, the worker
is held in economic bondage by the use of force;
and it's employment therefore becomes ne
cessity to his emancipationr' ~ &c.,
Jan. 8, 1885: Where there once W $ mill
tary bodyaof men publicly organized, whose
strength could be easily ascertained (referring
to the Lehr und Weir Verein, which was
armed and by State law prohibited from using
arms, there exists an organization now whose
strength can not be estimated-a network Ct
destructive agencies, of a modern military
character, that will defy any and all attempts
of SUPPRESSION
In The same issue: Dynamite! OF all the
good stuff, this is the stuff. Stuff several
pounds of this sublime stuff into an inch-pipe
(gas or water pipe), plug up both ends, insert a
cap with fuse attached, place this in the i'm.
mediate neighborhood of a lot of rich 1oafers,
who live by the sweat Of other peoples brows,
and light the fuse. A most cheerful and graft
flying result will follow. = A pound Of
this good stuff beats q bushel of ballots all
hollow, and don't you forget it!''
. November 80. 1884, again: Nothing but an
uprising Of the people and bursting open Of
all stores and storehouses to the free access Of
the public, and a free application of dynamite to
